Released in November of 2005 (6 months after Mezmerize)as the second part of a two disc album recorded in the same studio sessions, the artwork like Mezmerize was painted by Daron’s father to give the album an abstract look and feel. The Digipak cardboard case fits into Mezmerize to …

I am so in love with hit single The Man Who Can’t Be Moved by The Script. Just some information about this song and the band, before I pore out my heart. I am not in love or anything, all it is, is I am in love …

I love the title of this album, The Alternative to Love by Brendan Benson pretty much. The album has a kind of oldies-sound or rather indie-sounding and very infectious. I love tracks like Alternative to Love, Feel Like Myself, Between Us and many more. Imagine an Oasis …

Complicated is a single of Avril Lavigne from her debut album Let Go. The story is Avril and her band crash the mall. They are harassing shoppers and causing havoc inside the mall. Her male band mates tried the clothes for woman and Avril is describing it in these …

I’m not trying to be biased or anything but I think people should ought to know that I am among the biggest fans of Mumford & Sons in this planet. I literally own all of their albums, as well as other live performances because their music is so much …

Lucifer Rising is a song by the Flaming Lips and a bonus track to appear on their fourth studio record, In A Priest Driven Ambulance. Opening up with a heavily distorted introduction, I’m slightly reminded of a sound that Radiohead would go on to embrace many years after this …

Winning Ugly is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Dirty Work. The track opens up with a distinct bass rhythm accompanied by a drum part as well. Richards’ leads come in throughout this section as well as a synthesizer part, which I personally doesn’t …

Stupid Girl is a track by The Rolling Stones which appears on their record Aftermath. Stupid Girl opens up with a quick drum part before developing a very light-hearted rhythm which stays pretty much constant throughout the song, or at least some variation of it. I’ve read a few …

Justin Bieber. You love him. You despise him. You are in the middle. Regardless everyone has their own distinct opinion of Justin Bieber. If any song is going to convince Bieber haters to see a positive side of the singer it’s his inspirational song “Pray.” Or it will just …

Christina Aguilera first became a huge success with songs like “Genie in a Bottle”. That was back in the late 90’s when she was battling it out with fellow former Mickey Mouse Club star Britney Spears for the spotlight. In my opinion, she has always been the more talented …

Albums of the 11th Madonna released, could be described as an ambitious project from Madonna. 12 songs with up-beat tempo, many include elements of hip-hop, although still strong in the style of Madonna. Perhaps collaboration with Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams, and Nate “Danja” Hills, will bring a fresh …

Walter’s Walk is a song by Led Zeppelin which appears on their record Coda. The song starts off with a quick blues sounding riff in the right channel from Page as Bonham comes straight down the center with a nice pounding drum rhythm as Plant comes in as well. …

“Inner Self” is a Sepultura song that appears on their breakthrough album “Beneath The Remains” This happens to be the second track on the album. It really starts off slow, but there are plenty of parts where the pace changes and it repeats going back to a slower tempo …

“Tonight She Comes” was a previously unreleased song by the band The Cars. The song appeared on their 1985 Greatest Hits album. Just the thought that they knew the song would be a hit, and the nerve to put it on a “Greatest Hits” album is just amazing. How …

Promises by Randy Travis is great song. It’s one of a couple of different songs that I like to listen to when I need to relax or mellow out after a bad day. It is somewhat of a sad song. It reminds me that when everything seems like it …

R. Kelly
“The World’s Greatest”
“Ali”: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
The church choirs and the swelling ballad strings once again return in this latest “I Believe I Can Fly”-ish opus from none other than the signature emotional song candidate for tear-jerking ‘message’ movies (with the exception of 1996’s “Space Jam” which …

Sometimes I just get sick of listening to bands like Panic at the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Metro Station, Paramore, or any other of those kind of pop rock bands. Just like with a meal, I want something with substance. Sometimes I want to hear lyrics that address serious …

The Future Sex/Love Sounds Album of pop idol Justin Timberlake, or JT for short, is to me simply the best he’s had in the music industry. This was JT’s second album, released in 2006.
I have followed JT’s career from the very start, right back to his struggling —˜N …

In this third album, Pissed Jeans, a band who came from Pennsylvania, USA, still looks consistent. If you like the type of punk rock offered Jesus Lizard or maybe Butthole Surfers, you will really enjoy the Pissed Jeans. If not, you will feel lost, because the King Of Jeans …

Come Together would have to be one of the most calming and relaxing Beatles songs which I’ve ever listened to. Driven by Lennon’s vocal delivery which just mixes right in perfectly with the music under him, Come Together is the opening track of Abbey Road and one of the …

Instantly, this album should be contrasted with the Different Gear, Still Speeding debut album by Beady Eye. It is important to know who is going to come up with a better album after the breakup of the band —“ the chief songwriter, the mastermind behind all famous Oasis songs, …

Eminem’s final album, “Curtain Call” was a bit disappointing. It was short and it didn’t have many new songs on it. Some of the new songs are cool and have good beats, like “Shake That” featuring Nate Dogg.
Another new song is F.A.C.K is fairly entertaining, but also kind of …

I’m a person who has tended to gravitate to mostly different kinds of rock and electronic music ever since I was a teenager. However, that does not and has never stopped me from exploring other genres of music and having other favourite artistes from those same genres. Nevertheless, it …

This The Doors Box Set [Box] by The Doors set costs close to $50, and it was a gift from one of my best friends. She loves to spend, and when she gets tired of things, she either pass it to me, or either when she goes shopping …

Whatever you like by T.I. is a song that seems like a fantasy to me. What guy would actually give a girl whatever she likes even if he was rich. There are some but not many. The music video for this song is a little weird because it starts …

Memory of A Longing Love or also what it is called as ‘Memori Sekuntum Rindu’ is very poignant, sweeping and sad. I have teared a few times whilst listening to this song, sung by the band Spoon.
Unfortunately, the lead singer of this band Spoon had been killed …

R&B Sensation Trey Songz released his 5th album in August 2012, titled “Chapter V”. It debuted at number one on the Billboard charts. Trey Songz has been on a span of hit records since the Step Up 3D Soundtrack single “Already Taken”, to the singles for this album which …

Something Happened To Me Yesterday is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their record Between The Buttons. The track starts off with a humorous sounding brass section in the right channel of the track which gives the song almost a circus like feel. Jagger comes in …

Dolly Parton is so much more than just a country music singer. She is an actress and all around fun and happy person that deserves all the wonderful things that she has in her life. She is an endearing person who has been known for her rather large bosom …

Overview - The Freewheelin’, Bob Dylan’s second effort, showcases more of Dylan’s original works rather than covers and traditional songs, which is what most of his debut album was made up of. Right from the start you can tell that Dylan has a knack for poetic lyrics and just …

I generally do not listen to reggae music, but when I do I usually tend to gravitate to the older types of reggae music like those from the nineteen nineties and sometimes, very rarely, the late eighties. This also means that I tend to prefer certain artistes such as …

“Low” is the number 1 single by the band Cracker. I’m actually kind of surprised that nobody has written a review for such a memorable and catchy song already. “Low” single handedly brought recognition for the band Cracker and significantly boosted their record sales for their 1993 album “Kerosene …

“Trapped In The Closet, Part 10″
TP-3 Reloaded

R. Kelly’s tenth episode of the “Trapped In The Closet” series takes a turn for the worst as it becomes downright silly and stupid. PIcking up after Part 9 where Officer James discovers that his wife Bridget is cheating on him …

Lips of an Angel is one of my least favorite songs of all time. When the song was first released, everyone I knew was playing it constantly. Every time I called one of my friends, it was their ring back tone and most of the people I knew set …

This is one of the songs that broke my heart. Not anyone may have experienced what the writer must have felt. But I do. I really do. Maybe that’s the reason why it appealed to me that much.
Technically judging, the tune is not that sad enough to mean what …

Green Finch and Linnet bird is a wonderful song from the musical Sweeney Todd. It also is on the soundtrack of the movie Sweeney Todd. The song is operatic, and has sweeping notes and vocals as the singer —˜s voice climbs up and down the musical scale. …

It started with the guitarist’s medley and drums which is giving each other a way to put the melody all together. It was another favorite song of mine by Hillsongs Australia and Mighty To Save was sung by Reuben Morgan.
I like the way Reuben sings the song because it …

The Worst is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Voodoo Lounge. The track opens up with an acoustic guitar part before the vocals come in. To be honest, the vocals don’t sound like Jagger at all and I’m actually not convinced that this is …

Tim McGraw has been around country music for a while now and he has made a great success of career and his family all at the same time. He, along with his wife, Faith Hill, have been great at what they do no matter what it is. They shine …

For me, one of the best songs of all time. Whatever people think of Eminem, or rap music, I just love it.
This song was for his film 8 mile and once you watch the film it all makes sense, but to me it all made sense prior to the …

I never really fancy or like listening to any chinese music because many of them sounded too draggy and are very similar to the modern english music.
But this guy made me change my mind about it. He can play 7 or more musical instruments from traditional chinese ones to …

I think that this is not a very good full length album for a band like Modest Mouse. I remember how I first started listening to it after I listened to their first full length album, and I did not enjoy this record at all. It was because I …

Usually, I avoid character songs. Not that I hate them, or that they’re always bad, but they just sound odd sometimes. But Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei already has the girls singing in the openings and endings. One of my favorite character songs of theirs is this song, by Yuu Kobayashi.
It …

Marking the 19th anniversary of Alice in Chain’s “Dirt”, it is only fitting to pay it tribute and praise for what it did for many fans of the band, and many people who were introduced to them through that album. This album had many very dark tones, battling many …

This Was My Life is a song by Megadeth which appears on their record Countdown To Extinction. This Was My Life gradually fades in before leading into a pretty aggressive and crunchy riff coming from Mustaine along with a pretty heavy bass line as well. Mustaine comes in with …

I admit that I was reluctant to listen to this album. Ever since his release of the Recovery album, I really didn’t know what to expect from Marshall Mathers. So, I didn’t want to be disappointed.
The first song of the album, “Bad Guy”, shattered my doubts about Em. This …

Overview —“ Sweet Children, Green Day’s third EP, is surprisingly what I would consider their worst release yet. I figured that since it was released later than either of their first EPs, 1,000 Hours or Slappy, the songwriting would’ve improved and everything like that but this wasn’t the case …

Love him or hate him, Steve Austin knows how to make music. And when it comes to releasing the ninth and hopefully not last record, Pain is Warning, I am reminded on how much of a creative genius Steve Austin can be. Think of Austin as an underground music …
